Plugin Information

This plugin integrates Bugzilla into Hudson. It hyperlinks bug numbers that appear in changeset descriptions to the bugzilla bug detail page. It can also, optionally, add a tooltip to each linked bug, showing the bug 'summary' text.

Hudson needs to know the URL to your bugzilla server. In addition, you can specify a username and password to the bugzilla server. If login is required to see bug detail, then the username and password are necessary for the tooltip feature. Note that the password is stored in plaintext within Hudson's configuration files. Here is an example configuration page, with the bugzilla project's own bugzilla server:
Once the plugin is configured, all numbers are hyperlinked and get tooltips. Since there is no convention to distinguish bugzilla bug numbers, all integers get hyperlinked. Here is a nonsensical example of a changeset on Hudson's SVN server, linked with the mandriva Bugzilla database, with the mouse cursor over bug 1659. Note that the revisions are hyperlinked in addition to Issue 1659:

Change Log

Version 1.4.1 (Mar 25, 2012)

Added some regex description and regex examples from the hudson community to the helpfile.

I am getting the same error described before, and I can't replace the current path "http://bugzilla" as example by normal way, so I changed directly in global.jelly file in plugins\bugzilla\WEB-INF\classes\hudson\plugins\bugzilla\BugzillaProjectProperty

The regex does NOT match just any number. The number must be preceded by something like "bug", "issue" or "SCR".

While there is no convention for what a bugzilla bug should be called, the regex above takes care of most of the ones we use at our shop. I am sure you could get even fancier with it, but this seems to work for now. I suggest something like the above be the default instead of matching all decimal numbers as the current default regex does.

I'm trying to set this up to work with a SSL required Bugzilla, but get this complaint from the plugin, "Error contacting bugzilla XMLRPC at this URL" and no traffic is shown by tcpdump on the remote server. If I change the https:// to http:// then tcpdump shows traffic, but of course the plugin fails. Is there something special I need to do or is SSL unsupported? I see the sample shown uses SSL (https://qa.mandriva.com//show_bug.cgi?id=1659) so seems like it should be supported.
